I was pricked by a syringe but did not bleed. can I still be infected? - I had bought my son a traditional outfit from a lady. I know she is a IV drug User. When he took off the outfit i seen the tip of the needle come off and the needle came right for my toe. the tip of the needle was bent and It nicked my toe. I immediately checked for blood but did not see any and even squeezed my foot to see if any came out. I think went and washed my toe. I did feel it hit my toe. The outfit has been in my closet for about 28 days so I know the needle hasnt been used for that period of time. I am deathly afraid. please help me.
